    1. No, the custom firmware version must be exactly same as or latest than the firmware on your phone. Downgrading is not possible. Check the CFW versions from the name of downloaded files.

  2. I am on v1. Will flashing v2.1 retain data on phone or will I need to reset everything?

    1. Forcibly scan from options. Wait for some time.
